Our Canteen has a varied menu and caters for all students.
It is therefore vital that we have the most up-to-date knowledge of your child’s allergies.
We also need to stress the importance of not sharing food or buying food for fellow students as this could lead to students inadvertently eating foods they are allergic to.
Please email s.kazmierczak@st-nicholas.cheshire.sch.uk with any allergy information.
St Nicholas currently has a Parent Governor vacancy.
No special qualifications are needed and the most important thing is to have a keen interest in the school and be prepared to play an active part in the governing body’s work. Training is available for all governors.
If you would like to stand for election please complete the enclosed nomination form and return it to the school no later than 3pm on Friday 15th October 2021.

We have many students losing their PE kits.
If left in a classroom the PE kit will stay there for 48 hours after which it will be taken to the Student Support Office. If the kit has a name in it we will try to find its owner.
It is therefore imperative that all kit is labelled – this includes shoes, tops and the bag itself.
Please also label water bottles.
It has been fantastic to hear live music-making with mixed year groups in school. It`s not too late to join an ensemble!! Please ask Mrs McKenna or Mr Rushworth if you are unsure about rehearsals.
Instrumental lessons are also back up and running and we have some lesson slots available, particularly for brass instruments and flute. Please email Mrs McKenna for more details for these or any other instrumental lessons. h.mckenna@st-nicholas.cheshire.sch.uk
